Haha, I feel the same too. =P
And since they added a division last year, and where debating whether they'd do that or give us qualifiers... I'm really hoping we'll get at least once this year! Hoping for Toronto, as Seattle is already really close to BC. And I'd like to go to Worlds too, but it's in Hawaii and it'll be really expensive D:
I'm so glad we were able to watch it streaming. It's so much better than watching the replays that TPCI puts up after the battles are done. The crowd factor is what makes this the most entertaining.
That being said, thanks to TTS for his excellent commentary throughout the finals. As many have stated before, it made it so much easier to follow along and understand exactly what was going on.
On that note, I will also extend my congrats to Ray. Nice work defending your title. I was even more impressed with the use of a Gothitelle in your team. You didn't use it in your finals match, but just the mere fact that you used it at all in a World Championship tournament is fantastic. Have fun in Japan and we'll see you next VGC season. :)

The community over there was great. BTW, Michael Sankey! *clap* *clap* *clap* Congrats to Ray and jams for their victories.
Congrats Ray! Way to Two-peat!
Congrats Ray!
Was dissapointed by seniors division finals. When I played the Korean and it was a pretty good game, his team just did really badly against Kamz's.
I am not going to complain about my game with Kamz, just going to say what I did even after I went 5-0 in swiss with nearly no luck about my thoughts on the metagame. "BS hax"

The official site put up interviews with the VGC World Champions:

I didn't see it in any of his streamed battles, but BlueCookies also used a Escavalier on his team despite not using Trick Room. That's a pretty surprising choice to me.

I seem to forget about the winner of the Junior Division. Congratulations Brian on your success as well. Also, a great showing by Brendan and Human and Cybertron regardless of how he placed :p Great job again BlueCookies. Hopefully I'll be able to do well and meet up with everyone next year at Nationals and Worlds!
Congratulations Ray on winning it all once again. While I haven't been around since LCQs and shall fly back home tomorrow night, I look forward to seeing the recap of what I've missed the past few days. While we hear worlds will be in Hawaii next year, we may actually plan on going since we've never been there before.
oh god ray such a boss
oh and kamz too
oh and kamz too
congrats mr rizzo
I was just reading on the official website. I'm happy for Kamz and all, but what I don't like is how he basically just used Aaron's team give or take a few moves. Idk, I just like when people use their own strategies. I'm not trying to lash out at Kamz or anyone or trying to start a conflict, please, don't take this the wrong way. I'm just wondering, was it a coincidence or did you discuss with him or something? It's none of my business anyway. You don't have to reply to this :)
